Listen up, MSM [View all]

Don't compound your purely awful coverage this election season of sane washing Trump by sane washing the election results.

Kamala didn't run a terrible campaign, there wasn't some seething anger about the economy.

Tell it like it is: misogyny and racism.

Own it.

Trump played you all like a banjo.

Harris and the dems ignored the working people? Seriously? That's what you're going with? She had tax plans, home business idea, health care fixes, price gouging protections and immigration reform. But you know that -- even if you hardly said a word about it because it would take precious broadcast time away from Trump's every toxic verbal fart and the latest dozen or so push polls.

But it's ok. You can take comfort in the fact that the barricades can come down. There will be no riots on January 6. One party respects the result of elections and the rule of law. The other party won so it's all good. Thanks to the Neville Chamberlains out there who were too scared or exhausted to challenge the bully and his mob, you bought yourselves 3 months of peace, if not quiet. Enjoy it. And then watch what happens next.

But don't insult our intelligence by excusing yourselves and the misogynic and racism underbelly that drove these election results and the role you played in sane washing its cult leader.

Maybe you'll even make Trump Time Magazine's Man of the Year. Yes, Man of the Year, not Person of the Year. I think we all realize now that only one gender matters. Patriarchy., women, stop whining and get with the program.
